    I remember being served the traditional sweet porridge made from newly harvested rice, that is delicious.

    The Little India looks safe now in Singapore after the scary incident.




    I passed this Little India in Singapore many times and it looks bigger than the one in KL.

    Interesting to know all these, thanks for sharing. I don't think we have the celebration here in Penang though, even if we do, i'm afraid of the traffic jam :P

    Thank you for the colourful photos. Because here Thai Pongal is not a public holiday nor widely celebrated, I didn't know about it at all.
